"This is a fantastic recipe that my family and I came up with when we used to own a cafe. We wanted to come up with something different that could be used as a special, but that was made from ingredients we already kept on hand... it's SO easy and takes so little time!!!! I love these! YUMMY! Eat up!"

ingredients

• 3 potatoes
• 1 lb ground beef

• Green Chile Sauce

• 15 ounces cream of chicken soup
• 15 ounces cream of mushroom soup
• 1⁄2 cup green chili pepper, coarsely chopped
• 1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder or 1 finely chopped garlic clove
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt

directions

1. Poke holes in the potatoes with a fork, then place each in a ziploc bag and cook in the microwave for 2 minutes apiece or until done. Set aside.
2. Brown ground beef in a skillet then set aside.
3. Pour both cans of soup into a sauce pan and put over medium heat.
4. When the soup begins to steam, begin adding your remaining sauce ingredients. You can adjust the amount of chile to suit your liking!
5. Cook sauce until it bubbles and is heated through thoroughly.
6. Simply top your baked potatoes with the cooked beef, then smother with sauce. It's delicious if you top this with grated cheese, sour cream, and salsa!
